A splice variant in KRT71 is associated with curly coat phenotype of Selkirk Rex cats. [PDF]
, 2013 One of the salient features of the domestic cat is the aesthetics of its fur. The Selkirk Rex breed is defined by an autosomal dominant woolly rexoid hair (ADWH) abnormality that is characterized by tightly curled hair shafts.
